One of the questions frequently asked to our Customer Service is how the nappy should be put to waste after it has been used. We would like to take the opportunity to give some advice about this and give some information about the materials in our nappies.
From an environmental viewpoint the best way to dispose our nappies is to put them in a biodegradable nappy-bag and put them in the waste bin. It’s not recommended to put used nappies in the compost bin. The reason is that human waste contains bacteria that will not be destroyed and can contaminate water and people.
Nature Babycare consist largely of renewable materials. These raw materials come from plants and trees. When the materials are burned carbon dioxide is released to be consumed by other plants or trees. In this way more carbon dioxide is not released into the air, which is the result when petroleum-based materials are being burnt.
We want to make available a disposable nappy that is as environmentally friendly as possible. We want to offer a choice to parents who try to reduce their impact on our nature. The target for Nature Babycare is to develop a nappy that is 100% biodegradable. We are not quite there yet, due to the fact that renewable alternatives are not yet available for some of the materials used in nappies. But, you can be sure we are working hard to find materials that are kind to our environment and at the same time meet our high demands on performance.
We have already come far in our strive to be able to offer an environmentally friendly alternative and you can be sure by using Nature Babycare nappies you will make less impact on the environment compared to if you would use most other nappies on the market.
